whisky or no whisky some time next
year, when no other matter il up for
consideration, will be- elected by a
large majority. l don't want to mis-
lead you and your numerous readers
in the above statement. There are
few Complexities and Baptists who
are opposed to taking away their
liberty to get drunk.
What has become of the George
town & Paris X. r? If the citizens
of the surrounding counties would
take the matter in hand they could
make the road. Let 1t begin at Law
renceburg, Ky.
With the Custom House about
complete; with Taylor to pull the
triggers. we would have the vexed
question of removing the Capital set
tied forever. Unless something is
done, and that soon, the Capital will
be moved, and the State House yard
will be converted into hog pen, and
it will be the fault of the citizens of
Frankfort.
Now, to sum up the whole matter,
with the marriage of the Republican,
Prohibition and Labor Parties, with
their children, and the Capital re-
moved, and us Democrats out IN the
cold, after having our fist 50 long into
the State treasury, would it not be
dreadful? May God, i'm His good
ness, spare us such a calamity, and
may He protect and defend the DEM
Ocratic party, and Governor Knott in
cluded, for his vetOeing the Cow Bill,
is the prayer of Zeke. The Lord can
do as he pIeases with BOliver Buckner,
Hines and others, but spare Proctor

regret that I shall never have the
pleasure of writing another letter

are that, being in your city not long
since, was told that, in days gone
by, it was the worst place i'm Ken

LOST.
On my way to Peaks. Mill, 1 lost
my Gillie Lue Bird. Any one find
ing said bird will please leave it with
George A. Lewis, Roundabout office,
ut Frankfort, KY, and will be re-
warded. He may be found at some
sand bank. He sticks his bill in the
sand and whistles SO that he can be
heard for miles around. / have few
pairs of Guyaskutus, which | would
sell on reasonable terms, or eggs ut

BLAIR BILL.
Pm still opposed to said bill. fit
should pass, away goes the Demo-
cratic party. If the common herd of
this great country of ours are edu-
Gated, they would all become Re-
publicans. Ignorance is bliss. Pm
opposed to any trick that would
injure our great party. Pm also Op-
posed to all sumptuary laws. The
very thought of taking away my lib.
erty to whip my defenseless wife and
children, and clOthe them with
rags, is an outrage. Why, my dear
nephew, thereare some persons who
have no Christianity without an eye
opener to begin with. They learn to
pray more fervently, besides it inn
proves their. health. A man. who
chews long green tobacco and eats
onions, his breath Is bad. l would
prefer smelling th~warm end ola buzz
cards nest. One good drink of bug
Juice gives tone to his breath. He Is
then prepared, if its on the LORDS
day, to mix it with the wine that Is
taken to celebrate his SaviOur's death.
1t also improves a mans looks. 1t
makes his eyes more brilliant. l
have seen some church members eyes
stick out like a rOach's who had been
mashed between two pianks, or a
tom cats eyes peeping through a
sieve. All of the ABOVE improve
ments are the result of taking big
drink before starting to church.
Dear George, can't tell nOw1when
l will see you. Twill start. in IA few
days, to ROWing county, on Il peace
mission. Other great men have
failed to make u permanent peace, but
Pm willing to sacrifice myself for the
common good of my native State.
Its needless to tell you Pm opposed
to coercion. Its not Democratic.

tween the States to last as long as the
